We had this wine with braised beef shanks for dinner. The nose here is blackberry bush... A greeny nose. On the palate, this one was again about the black fruit, and I got a good flavor pop with a bite of nutmeged, braised endive. More sips evoke some raspberry... But again, that raw, green blackberry pervades. I wish I could come up with more green notes here... I think of the color that broccoli gets when you add salt to the steamer...

Good fruit: raspberry, dark fruit. Slight sweetness, and some pepper. Medium-length fruit forward finish. Great with Andolini's pizza for Halloween.

A hidden jewel in the south of mendoza. A longer winter and the healthy winds from the mountains provide a favorable inviroment for cabernet in the area of San Rafael. Definitely an area that is underrated
